Why does my dog pee in the house as soon as I leave?
She a 7 year old husky, shepard mix. She was fixed as a puppy. I moved a year ago and no longer have a fenced in yard and doggie door. I take her for walks a couple times a day, she gets plenty of exercise. She pees as soon as I leave the house. She even peed right in front of me one day as I was leaving for work.. I tried hiding treats. I tried putting her in a crate. That did not work at all. She totally went nuts and destroyed the crate. I need help please, dog is destroying my carpet. Other than the peeing problem she is very well behaved... I went to the store yesterday, I was gone for 15 minutes. I made sure she went the bathroom outside before I left. I got home and she peed twice in the living room. HELP
How to discipline a dog for peeing in the house?
Don’t punish your dog. This is counter productive and will make things worse. Firstly, is your dog a puppy? Has it ever been housetrained? Is it getting enough excercise and attention? If it’s an adult it may have an underlying medical problem. Take it to a vet for a check up. Ruling out any medical reason, stick to the following plan no matter the age of your dog.take the dog outside first thing in the morning, after every meal, periodically throughout the day and last thing at night. Stay outside with your dog until it toilets, this may take up to 5–10 minutes-do not shut the door and leave it outside alone.each time your dog toilets outside, give it LOADS of praise, over excited happy praise, then bring it inside for a food treat. If your dog does not toilet outside, just bring it back inside, just say nothing. No treats no praise. But also NO telling off.when your dog toilets inside. SAY NOTHING, no shouting, no scolding and DEFINITELY NO SMACKING. These acts will either make your dog anxious which result in a scared (or aggressive) dog which is likely to House soil more often. Just quietly-saying nothing- clear it up.BE CONSISTENT. This is key. If you are, the dog will quickly understand that something nice happens when it toilets outside. This may take weeks, sometimes even months, but it does work if you stay consistent. Please don’t think that it will understand that something bad happens if it toilets inside therefore it will stop, that’s not how it works, fear and confusion make for an unhappy dog.Good luck!
Why does my dog pee after his bath?
I just got done giving him a bath, and he likes to go ape wild so I like to play with him, so I gave him his bath and I walk into the kitchen and he is just standing there peeing. He's house broken, he never pees in the house or in his crate, only outside. He has NEVER peed in the house or anything, only when he has just gotten a bath, the first time it was in the bath/tub, and now he was just standing there, peeing. Why? He's house broken, and even if he had to go really bad, he wouldn't have gone, why would he do this?
My dog just peed inside 5 or 6 times in a row?
My puppy (well he's 5 months) is probably 95% house trained. He never poops inside, and the only times he pees is when he is excited, or I take too long getting ready to go outside. But just today, I got back from a long walk and he had a big drink of water (as usual). Since he got super dirty playing with another dog, I put him right in the tub and washed him. After washing him, I took about 40 minutes blow dry. I decided since the floor was all wet and dog smelly I'd wash it and take him out when I finished (about 2.5 hours after his big drink...which isn't normally a problem). While I was washing the floor, he peed. I figured it was because I should have taken him out sooner or something, so I told him "NO!" cleaned it up, and kept on washing the floor. I know I should have taken him outside right when I caught him peeing, but I figured I was in the middle of scrubbing the floor, and he'd already peed, and he KNOWS he isn't supposed to, so I may as well wait until I'm done to take him out. Then he did it again! And again! And again! He peed 6 times, I think. And the times I saw him do it, he was kind of slinking and had his tail down, like he knew I was going to yell at him, so he must have really had to go since he does not like being shouted at! And they weren't excited pees, he was spreading out, and just peeing on purpose. It seemed like a substantial amount, too. Not like his excited pees which are just a dribble. I took him outside after I got done cleaning the floor (and all of his pee!) and he peed AGAIN! From the first inside pee to the outside pee, only about 8-10 minutes passed. Do you think I should call the vet? It's a holiday so it would probably just annoy them if I bothered them because "my puppy peed on the floor" but it just seemed so out of character, and like a lot of pee. Do you think it just seemed like a lot because he really had to go, and I was ignoring him (bad, I know) and he was just letting a bit out at a time because he knows he isn't supposed to, but he couldn't hold it because it was too much? If it's relevant, the "puddles" were between the size of a baseball and a basketball's circumference. He is a small dog, 14 lbs.
